Answer:

I will assume that the term "x+2/2" is meant to be "(x + 2)/2)."  Otherwise the equation would read (x/3) = x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

(x/3) = (x + 2)/2

x = 3*(x+2)/2   [Multiply both sides by 3]

x = (3x + 6)/2

x = (3/2)x + 6/2

x - (3/2)x = 3

-0.5x = 3

x = -6

====================

Check:

Does (x/3) = (x + 2)/2 for x = -6?

(-6/3) = (-6 + 2)/2

-2 = -4/2

-2 = -2  YES
